I'm hoping they're gone and we can discuss replacements.6 points -
I suggest that Kolankowski is an even biggesr liabiity. Thomas just gives up yardage., but Kolankowski gives up free runs at our QBs.5 points

Are you guys really going to whine about Kolo and Jake all off season? There's nothing new to say folks.3 points -
Shitty Jake is just sad to watch..and makes others have to work harder and be less impactful Shittier kolo effects whole offence pretty much and when others have to work harder it at times takes them away also from their actual responsibilities...so a huge ripple effect...not to mention the QB needing to constantly keep one eye up the middle and not getting to see and read the whole field...a bad center...is the one position you don't want your worst slug3 points

Perhaps so, but the fates of Thomas and Kolankowski are inextricably entwined with the fate of the 2026 Bombers and fan confidence, not to mention game attendance, so it is stil a live grenade.2 points

Wow this thread got derailed in a bad way.2 points -
He was a very good rotational piece in his time. But yes, every one playing beside guys like stove, drake, prime wj/jj was gonna shine. Sad that iirc stove still hasn't turned 30. And his career is basically a season and a half of utter dominance. Hasn't seen the field since 21 here. He was such a monster when he came back from injury in that stretch run. Really crazy to think that JJ, Stove, and Kongbo all peaked here in 21 at a pretty young age. Then WJ and Jake drag them selves on and on playing as a shell of their former self.2 points

How much juice did he have in 2018 when we tried to walk away from him? The fact that it's now 2025 and we're still talking about him and he's still playing that kind of a role, is a huge fail for this team.2 points

The Blue can dress Jake Thomas up like Homer and do skits where everyone on this board is Grimes being baffled at how JT still has his job.2 points

The success rates in the US penal system are very low. The longer people are incarcerated, the more their sense of social connection, like skills and integration detreiorate and more "normal" becomes warped. In Sweden, Norway and Holland, they are closing jails as a result of emphasizing rehabilitiation rather than punishment. It takes a shift in the justice system but it pays off in financial as well as societal ways.1 point -

That would depend on your definition of justice. I have had some experience with the American penal/justice system and can tell you that there is very little attempt at rehabilitation- only incarceration in an often brutal system. Their recidivism rate is the highest of any western industiralized country despite having the longest incarceration rates. Most American jails are privately owned and run and rehab programs are detriments to the bottom line- profits. The longer someone is in jail, the greater the likelihood they will re-offend.1 point -
Too much pressure on Toews after being out so long...move namesy back to second line center and move Jt back to fourth line,give him time to find his game again.1 point

I guess kolo and Jake are the biggest fails as they are the worst starters at their position in the league by far. Jake doesn’t touch the ball every play tho and sounds like if nothing else he’s a respect veteran. Kolo? Don’t hear so much. Jake I suppose deserves some respect for being a lifetime bomber and it’s not his fault the team keeps giving him 1 year deals.1 point

He's the poster boy for one of Osh's biggest flaws And sadly....he is not the only example of it...for several yrs....and that mindset of his...or his opinion ...and it's pretty much just his and as the HC he can do what he wants...needs to change in a big way1 point

I'm currently re-watching the 2019 GC game. And JT was pretty effective, even blowing up Banks on a sweep. But he also had tremendous help around him. Side note - Suitor kept complementing Collaros on a few passes that were very clearly badly thrown. lol. Lawler and Demski both had at least a step on their defender on a corner route and both had to stop and come back to an underthrown ball and make great catches. Which just drives home the fact that Collaros has only ever been as good as the guys around him in his time here.1 point -

That's because you're misinterpreting the statement.1 point -
It is EXTREMELY hyperbolic to say that Jake Thomas is EVERYTHING that's wrong with this team.... The only issue with Jake the past two years is that they gave him Prime Doug Brown snaps. Used sparingly, it would have been fine and far less glaring. He just doesn't have that much juice anymore. Going forward, if much prefer to see Cam Lawson and Tanner Schmeckel if we're going to carry NI DL...1 point

People can laugh all they want at this with a wave of their hand but this is bang on. Obviously it does not mean that our 39th best player who plays nose is the main reason for our downturn. It's silly and misguided to interpret it that way. Don't think specific player, think mindset and approach using a specific example. E.g., roster management, recruiting, playcalling, loyalty versus onfield performance etc etc etc. MOS has confirmed all of this needs improvement/course correction to get us back to the top.1 point -

It's true. Oh, it's true. Postmedia doesn't send any beat writers for the Stamps on the road. I believe that's the same for every CFL team Postmedia covers. I've cancelled my subscription to the Calgary Herald. They don't want to spend any coin on the CFL well **** them. There isn't one story about the Stamps the day after when they publish when the Stamps have a road game. Postmedia has destroyed journalism in this country. I refuse to spend any money on that fraudeulent media company.1 point -
I don't understand the "hate" for people going South for winter and how it is related to domestic flights being expensive. I don't believe airlines are subsidizing flights to Mexico by charging more to folks wanting to travel back and forth from Calgary? The only hate should be Air Canada taking billions from our Gov't and yet still outsourcing most of the jobs and charging customers top dollar for mediocre services. Me thinks you are in a time warp and think that it is the 80's where a family could travel via car for an affordable rate while only the rich and upper class can fly to Mexico. These days it's the opposite, our family road trips that we take are extremely expensive in comparison for the value that we have when we fly to Mexico. I've encountered several people in my life who didn't understand going South for winter.... until they went one time and then realized how great it is and after going once couldn't wait until they could go back again. Many of them regretted waiting so many years until going. Leaving Winnipeg in -30 weather and arriving somewhere tropical and getting that blast of hot +25 humid air as you leave the plane is sublime.1 point
